Volcanic eruptions cause an enormous ash cloud to block out the sun over Europe, resulting in a deadly temperature drop. In Paris, a divided family must battle the elements and the authorities if they are to be reunited.

00:00:00To be continued...
00:00:30I don't know.
00:01:00The last year last erupted in 1783, ultimately killing over 6 million people.
00:01:07The ash cloud is beginning to spread east towards the UK and Europe beyond.
00:01:19Are these figures just preliminary?
00:01:23Yes. The eruption began only 15 minutes ago.
00:01:26And yet, it's exactly as we predicted.
00:01:30Twelve kilometer high plumes.
00:01:32Two thousand tons of ash per second, multiple earthquakes.
00:01:36This is going to carry on for a few days.
00:01:39We'd better start revising the model.
00:01:42We'll need data from the other sites as well.
00:01:44Call the monitoring stations.
00:01:46I want facts before I call the authorities.
00:01:49You really think this is it?
00:01:52If the data holds to the model, I think it is.
00:01:55Oh, really? Again?
00:02:07What's up, Perkins?
00:02:08Iceland's erupted again.
00:02:10It's an annual event, apparently.
00:02:11First, it was Eierfjall-Jürgen.
00:02:15Then Grimsvertner.
00:02:16And now, Lackagier.
00:02:18Wonderful language skills you have.
00:02:20Be careful. You've got a posting there.
00:02:22So, how bad?
00:02:24Probably the strongest yet.
00:02:26It only happened about an hour ago.
00:02:27It's already reached an altitude of 17 kilometers.
00:02:2917 kilometers?
00:02:31You know, that really is rather bad.
00:02:32What's the spread?
00:02:34Winds aren't too strong.
00:02:36All right. Keep me posted.
00:02:39Oh, one moment.
00:02:41What's happening with that little storm system
00:02:43in the northwest Atlantic?
00:02:45Oh, it's gathering strength.
00:02:46Temperature's down 12 degrees.
00:02:48Pressure's down by 214 millibars.
00:02:51If that crosses the ash cloud,
00:02:53it'll make rather a mess.
00:02:55Yes, it will.
00:02:56All right.
00:02:57If there's even the possibility of a major grounding,
00:03:00the sooner people know, the better.
00:03:02Spread the good news.
00:03:03Will do, Colonel.
00:03:05Thank you, Control.
00:03:09This is 1765 out.
00:03:12What was all that about an ash cloud?
00:03:14Not much, I hope.
00:03:16Aroba NB-1765.
00:03:18Reduce altitude to 30,000 feet and report.
00:03:22Roger that, Control.
00:03:241765 reducing altitude.
00:03:28Oh, there it is.
00:03:29The coast.
00:03:32Oh, this septadile.
00:03:33This blessed plot.
00:03:35What's that?
00:03:37Shakespeare, darling.
00:03:38Oh, right, of course.
00:03:40Lucky you're so handsome.
00:03:44Why are they having you reduce altitude?
00:03:46Oh, I'm sure it's just an air traffic issue.
00:03:49Control, this is 1765.
00:03:51We're at 30,000 feet.
00:03:53Roger, 1765.
00:03:55Stand by for further instructions.
00:03:56Roger that.
00:03:57Four years ago, my team built a model predicting Icelandic volcanic activity, and this morning's
00:04:03eruption hues almost exactly to the parameters established in that model.
00:04:08The amount of ash and lava, the 5.5 magnitude earthquake.
00:04:12Consequently, we believe the second phase we predicted will shortly begin.
00:04:18A series of Lind eruptions throughout northern and central Europe.
00:04:22What we're going to see is the seismic activity of one volcano triggering the next along the fault lines at the edge of the tectonic plate.
00:04:30You can't be serious.
00:04:33Germany.
00:04:35Italy.
00:04:35France.
00:04:37Greece.
00:04:37It could be a matter of days, if not hours.
00:04:43Oh, my.
00:04:43Oh, my.
00:04:44Doctor, this can't be.
00:04:45Doctor, this can't be.
00:04:48Please.
00:04:50Please, no one wants to cause a panic.
00:04:53But you should begin making arrangements to move people from the affected areas.
00:04:58And what exactly are the affected areas?
00:05:02Approximately 83% of the European landmass.
00:05:06You're okay, right?
00:05:08I mean, this isn't a 747.
00:05:10Champagne, caviar, and all that fancy stuff.
00:05:13No, this is fun.
00:05:14It's romantic.
00:05:15It's just the two of us.
00:05:17Oh, great.
00:05:17My ex didn't like flying in small planes.
00:05:20It's our loss.
00:05:21Mm-hmm.
00:05:23What about you?
00:05:24Not wishing this was a fighter jet?
00:05:26Hey, I'll have you know, young lady.
00:05:28I flew E-3s.
00:05:30Great.
00:05:31You know what I meant.
00:05:33You sure you don't miss the Air Force?
00:05:35I don't miss the Air Force.
00:05:36I've had enough danger for one lifetime now.
00:05:38It's just quality time.
00:05:39Quality romantic time with my new beautiful wife.
00:05:44You're sweet, but you don't have to keep selling.
00:05:46I'm already here.
00:05:47I'm not selling you.
00:05:49I just find it unbelievable sometimes.
00:05:51The kids are going to love you.
00:05:55Maybe.
00:05:56They will.
00:05:57Well, I won't take it personally if they're resentful.
00:06:001765, you're en route to Père-Lé-Boucher.
00:06:02Roger that control.
00:06:04I'm afraid all non-emergency air traffic is being grounded immediately due to atmospheric conditions.
00:06:09You'll have to land at London City.
00:06:11Control, we could be in Paris in less than an hour.
00:06:13That's a negative 1765, reduce altitude to 25,000 feet and report.
00:06:19Roger that control.
00:06:201765, reducing altitude.
00:06:22I don't see any cloud.
00:06:25It must be coming in faster than expected.
00:06:28The temperature's dropping.
00:06:29Look at the autometer.
00:06:31There's a barometric abnormality.
00:06:35Maybe it is just as well we're landing.
00:06:37You think the kids are going to be okay?
00:06:39No, they'll be fine.
00:06:39This must be all the way in the news.
00:06:41Still, you should check in.
00:06:42I'll give them a call when we land.
00:06:51I wonder when that cloud's going to reach us.
00:06:54I'll play not until Dad and what's-her-name right here.
00:06:58Lacey.
00:06:59Whatever.
00:07:01Okay, so we have four.
00:07:03We have five stops until we get to the Gare de l'Est.
00:07:07Then we've got to take a bus to the airport.
00:07:10I don't know if we could just take a train.
00:07:12Ryan.
00:07:17Hello, Ryan.
00:07:19It's like the friggin' end of the world coming.
00:07:21Can you stop being a perv long enough to pay attention?
00:07:23There's nothing perverted about admiring a beautiful woman.
00:07:26It is when you do it to every single woman that walks by.
00:07:29It's Paris, you know?
00:07:31I mean, the whole reason I'm going to grad school here is to experience another culture.
00:07:35Right, and I thought it was because every single woman in America shot you down.
00:07:39Anyway, it's probably not the end of the world.
00:07:44It's just an ash cloud.
00:07:45It's like when that Iadju...
00:07:47Whatever, how you pronounce it, went off a few years back.
00:07:51They just canceled some flights and that was the end of it.
00:07:53Do you think it will affect Dad's flight?
00:07:55Let's hope not.
00:07:56Man, you know, I really got to visit that thing before I graduate.
00:08:04What?
00:08:05You haven't been to the Eiffel Tower?
00:08:07Oh my god, Ryan, what is wrong with you?
00:08:11Such a loser.
00:08:12You know, Taryn, you really might consider being nicer to me.
00:08:15You really think Mom and Dad would have let you transfer to the Parsons program here
00:08:18if I wasn't already in Paris?
00:08:20Their little girl, all alone in a foreign country?
00:08:24No way, especially with your history.
00:08:26I don't need a babysitter.
00:08:28I'm fine.
00:08:29In fact, I'm doing great.
00:08:32So glad to hear it.
00:08:35That's why I want to get to the airport, not on time, but early.
00:08:38I want Dad to see that I'm not this little girl anymore, and this semester has matured me.
00:08:46So he'll pony up for the summer session?
00:08:48I just want him to be proud of me, even though he is a midlife crisis, right?
00:08:53Taryn.
00:08:54What?
00:08:55The ink's not even dry on the divorce, and he runs off and marries some random chick.
00:08:59Mom left him.
00:09:00What do you want him to do, sit around crying and apologizing for the rest of his life?
00:09:04Yeah.
00:09:05Sounds about right.
00:09:06How many nights did Mom spend crying and alone?
00:09:09The guy's a pilot.
00:09:10Of course he's gonna have to...
00:09:11You know what?
00:09:12We're not doing this.
00:09:13You and I are not gonna have our little version of the same fight Mom and Dad had for 20 years.
00:09:17They divorced.
00:09:18Dad remarried.
00:09:19Yeah.
00:09:20Some chicky knew five minutes.
00:09:21Who's my age.
00:09:22It's worse.
00:09:23She's older.
00:09:24Still.
00:09:25Well, we're still doing alright on time.
00:09:26I mean, they probably haven't even in England yet, so...
00:09:28Sorry, I just don't want to take any chances.
00:09:29You know how Dad is about punctuality.
00:09:30If we're late, we're grounded.
00:09:31Alright.
00:09:32Control, this is 1765.
00:09:33We're at 20,000 feet.
00:09:34Roger.
00:09:351765.
00:09:36Switch to 119.725 for London City.
00:09:37Roger that.
00:09:38Control.
00:09:39Good luck, 765.
00:09:40Thank you, Control.
00:09:41This is 1765.
00:09:42Out.
00:09:43Thank you, Control.
00:09:44This is 1765.
00:09:45We're at 20,000 feet.
00:09:46Roger.
00:09:471765.
00:09:48Switch to 119.725 for London City.
00:09:49Roger that, Control.
00:09:50Good luck, 765.
00:09:51Thank you, Control.
00:09:52This is 1765.
00:09:53Out.
00:09:54Thank you, Control.
00:09:55Good luck, 765.
00:09:56Thank you, Control.
00:09:57This is 1765.
00:09:58Out.
00:10:24LSEX.
00:10:25Hour 2.
00:10:26Star Wars.
00:10:27Surveillance.
00:10:28Scourge Vestions.
00:10:29Scourge Vestions.
00:10:30Incredibly, reports are coming in, have yet another eruption of the European costedness.
00:10:36We just know that a volcanic eruption has just come to the south of Italy.
00:10:40This time it's the Monde El Snau which is entering the hurricane.
00:10:42Breaking news from Europe for a fourth volcanic eruption has shaken the Greek island of Santorini.
00:10:47It was long thought to be inactive, today's explosion was accompanied by violent
00:10:51earthquake and the luminous ash which due to the mountain's great elevation is already over 30 000
00:11:15feet high and spreading more than 20 miles to the north
00:11:30there's already over a billion tons of magma ejected two billion tons of ash that's within parameters
00:11:58but the sulfur dioxide more than two billion tons so far and already seven percent drop in temperature
00:12:06don't you see what's happening here we have to revise the model
00:12:15there is 33 percent more ash in the atmosphere than our model predicted and it's spreading
00:12:21faster than predicted as well we're revising our projections as we speak but it's essential
00:12:27for you to prepare for the new reality which is what exactly the temperatures will also drop
00:12:33faster than predicted it's going to get very cold very quickly in about 20 minutes i have the exact
00:12:42new data is just coming in as we speak but i don't think you should wait for the revised model to take
00:12:47action i don't know geez we'll have to get back to you doctor thank you sir anna yes doctor get me
00:13:00colonel delight at the guy location airbase will you right away london city control this is morava nb 1765
00:13:10for an unscheduled landing we've got your 765 make your heading 12 2.5 degrees reduce altitude to 12 000
00:13:16feet roger that control i'm sure they're going to be late anywhere tier and probably got sidetracked
00:13:22by a couple fancy boutiques you know you should go easy on her she's at a tough age she's always at a
00:13:28tough age girls we're complicated what i'm paying for that school jesus look at that thing whoa maybe
00:13:38it's a good thing we're landing but then how do we get to paris one crisis at a time london control
00:13:47this is one seven six five we're at 12 000 feet yes i'll be on my way colonel and i will explain more
00:13:57in detail when i arrive at the base but in the meantime i don't think we can afford to wait for
00:14:02the authorities to take action doctor i do not understand the multiple eruptions and earthquakes
00:14:10are linked colonel there's far more magma ash and sulfur dioxide being released than predicted
00:14:15and the result is something something we've never seen before the model i sent you should help
00:14:22explain it you have it open yes yes i've got the model open then you should be able to see the fault
00:14:28lines which exist along the edges of the tectonic plate okay would you please get me a warmer jacket
00:14:37and a clean shirt sir about that colonel as i was saying do you mind if i put you on speakerphone for a
00:14:43moment of course not as i was saying it was a massive tectonic shift in the mid-atlantic rift under
00:14:50iceland that caused the chain reaction of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions across the continent
00:14:55but currently the ash clouds from these separate eruptions are emerging and spreading as one through
00:15:00the atmosphere and because the clouds are blocking out the sun temperatures are falling yes but due to the
00:15:07pre-existing storm system in the north atlantic the glacial melt has increased exponentially
00:15:14look how can that be temperatures falling glaciers melting surely that means that temperatures are
00:15:21rising no because the chemical makeup of organic debris sends increased sulfide levels into the
00:15:27atmosphere thus increasing precipitation all right all right well how long is it going to take before this
00:15:34cloud dissipates click the blue tab on the model will you the cloud is projected to block the sun for
00:15:42the next 18 to 24 months at least all the time temperatures will continue to plummet is it snowing there yet
00:15:51what no no no it's not good it's only a matter of time uh doctor
00:15:58how much snow are we talking about here given the enormous amount of moisture rising into the
00:16:06atmosphere look we're still working on the model for that i should be ready by the time i read the base
00:16:12will that do yes of course oh wait one one moment doctor let me be quite clear about this what you're saying
00:16:20is that this storm will persist for a matter of years what is going to happen to europe i mean how much of
00:16:29europe is going to remain habitable i don't wish to engage in hyperbole colonel i'm receiving new data
00:16:36just right now i really have to get back to you have we heard from headquarters lately
00:16:44i think we should give them a little call and um i'd like to review the emergency protocols
00:16:55if this thing is going to go pear-shaped i think we ought to be prepared see to it
00:17:06the tectonic shifts causing earthquakes and volcanic eruptions in iceland
00:17:10and the european continent are also affecting the arctic circle
00:17:14scientists in mamansk report glacial breaks as long as 10 kilometers while experts from the baird
00:17:20polar research center estimate that rising sea level from rapidly melting polar ice will flood
00:17:25coastal cities in scandinavia and beyond residents of those areas are advised to move inland as quickly
00:17:31as possible to ensure their own safety and to allow government officials to make preparations
00:17:36against this global phenomenon
00:17:4645 minutes
00:17:51oh it's cold as hell up here we didn't pack for this weather
00:17:54there's no signal i'm gonna try this satellite phone we should call the kids well why don't we
00:17:59wait and figure out a game plan here why don't you call them
00:18:06a little nippy huh yeah it'll be warm in the metro
00:18:13oh my god dad must be calling from the plane hi dad hey look we're just getting the metro right now so
00:18:19hey ryan hold on a second uh listen we won't be landing in le beauje we had to
00:18:23land in london because of the ash cloud uh has it has it gotten there yet no it's not but it's coming
00:18:29it's cold and it's dark in the middle of the day you guys okay yeah we're fine how are you guys
00:18:34doing how's taren she's great want to say hi no to edge hello taren uh would you put me on the
00:18:39speakerphone on okay listen guys uh we're gonna be grounded here in london for a few days because
00:18:45of the weather so why don't you hold up in the apartment and then after it clears up we'll reconnect
00:18:50how's that okay yeah sounds good hey tell lacy we say hi oh hi guys can't wait to meet you us
00:18:56too us too all right guys we'll talk in a couple days bye bye bye oh he's so sweet yeah kiss ass
00:19:05what you're a kiss ass kiss ass just trying to be nice
00:19:12so what's the plan the plan is we get a nice hotel room and start our honeymoon right now
00:19:18you know if the planes are going to be grounded then the roads and the trains are going to be
00:19:22packed so maybe we should head to paris right now right now right now good idea okay i'll rent us a
00:19:33car and you book us a ticket on the euro town sounds good okay maybe on the way we could get some winter
00:19:37gear for us and the kids well that's a good idea yeah let's go to the market before we go home if
00:19:44there's a storm coming it'll be good to stock up sure
00:19:49taryn
00:19:53i guess that's the ash cloud i guess it is
00:20:01did you feel that it just got really cold yeah weird let's get going yeah
00:20:14come on come on
00:20:19come on
00:20:28ryan ryan are you okay i think so nice going to you
00:20:32uh soccer kicks football's ass
00:20:38okay come on it's not safe
00:20:42come on we gotta get out of here
00:20:48any luck no but i've gotten to here do you really want to hurt me 87 times
00:20:55i will never look at board george the same way again
00:20:57this weather's a mess why don't we just get a motel for the night we'll get an early start in the
00:21:03morning steve why is it me who's pushing you to see your kids why shouldn't this be all your idea
00:21:09well well i guess it should be i guess i have to get used to thinking like a good parent
00:21:15it's going to be a little difficult considering i was always told that i was such a bad husband
00:21:19well it takes two to make a marriage work it does or not work listen i love you and i know you're a good
00:21:28man thank you
00:21:33i can't believe it's snowing
00:21:37check the radio see what's going on okay potentially the worst snowstorm since 1908
00:21:43when more than 26 inches fell over three days in april currently in london the temperature is below
00:21:49zero and dropping steadily dozens of cities around the nation are without power but we will continue
00:21:54to broadcast as long as we are able this can't be right how certain are you the projection is based on
00:22:04current data 16 inches of ash will cover europe the sun would be blocked out by this cloud for two
00:22:12years earthquakes aftershocks temperatures will fall below zero and remain there and snow will
00:22:21continue to fall more or less continuously for the next 22 months my god man this is an unimaginable
00:22:29catastrophe what's the situation colonel like i said i don't like to engage in hyperbole hyperbole
00:22:38good god man if these projections are correct europe and a large portion of the northern hemisphere
00:22:46have just entered into a new ice age
00:22:54is the hail stopped i want to head home or go to the market just do both let's go get some heavier
00:22:59boots jackets stock up on food and water and then haul up in the flat like dad said okay okay sounds like a plan
00:23:06a plan
00:23:10brian what did you do you're such a slut i didn't do anything maybe this is metro
00:23:15look
00:23:17i don't understand why there's just
00:23:31what
00:23:40i don't know
00:23:46i don't know
00:23:48Come with me.
00:23:59No, no, no, it's fine.
00:24:00Come, come, it's not safe here.
00:24:02No, no, no.
00:24:03My brother.
00:24:04Brian!
00:24:04The guy is fucking over there.
00:24:06My brother's there.
00:24:07He's probably there, but I can save you.
00:24:09I have a house in the country.
00:24:10Let me go.
00:24:11You're panicking.
00:24:12You want to come with me?
00:24:13Let me go.
00:24:13Come on.
00:24:14Okay.
00:24:15If you insist.
00:24:17Asshole.
00:24:18Ryan!
00:24:26Ryan!
00:24:27You okay?
00:24:30Taryn?
00:24:31You okay?
00:24:32I asked you first.
00:24:34Oh, that sucked.
00:24:36I think I hit my head.
00:24:38I got hit on by some crazy French guy in the middle of this earthquake or whatever it is.
00:24:44Another earthquake.
00:24:45My house!
00:24:51We've got to get out of here.
00:24:53Let's go.
00:24:54Let's go.
00:24:54Let's go.
00:24:54Let's go.
00:24:55You think the earthquakes are related to the ash club or the volcanoes?
00:25:06I don't know.
00:25:07We should keep moving.
00:25:09Where are we going to go?
00:25:10I don't know.
00:25:10The embassy?
00:25:11They've got to have some kind of emergency plan to protect American citizens.
00:25:14It's so cold.
00:25:16What are we going to do?
00:25:18Ryan, I'm scared.
00:25:19I'm really scared.
00:25:20Be scared later.
00:25:21Ted.
00:25:27Ted.
00:25:27Ted.
00:25:28I'm okay.
00:25:29You're okay.
00:25:32Oh, my God.
00:25:33Go, go, go.
00:25:34Go ahead.
00:25:34Go ahead.
00:25:35Go ahead.
00:25:40You think it's over?
00:25:46I don't know.
00:25:46Feels like it's just the beginning.
00:25:48Oh, my God.
00:25:53Look at that. Totally smashed.
00:25:57Does your phone work?
00:26:01There's no signal.
00:26:03Maybe at the embassy.
00:26:05It's near the Place de la Concorde.
00:26:07At least the earthquakes have stopped.
00:26:09After now.
00:26:11Let's go.
00:26:13Preliminary reports put the Tembler at 8.4 on the Richter scale.
00:26:17Hospitals are overwhelmed with wounded,
00:26:19and thousands are still unaccounted for
00:26:21in the sudden wreckage littering Paris.
00:26:23While the city has seen minor earthquakes in its history,
00:26:27never has they been anything of this severity.
00:26:30Even the Italian quake of 1908 was only 7.5 magn...
00:26:35Okay, I'm calling the kids again.
00:26:37No, no, no. I got another idea.
00:26:38Okay. Who are we calling?
00:26:40Colonel Ralph Dillard.
00:26:41We served together in Desert Storm.
00:26:43He's with NATO now,
00:26:44and he's commander of Guilin Kirshen.
00:26:45He'll know what's going on.
00:26:48Gillard?
00:26:49Ralph, Steve Foster here.
00:26:51Steve, this is not a good time to talk, I'm afraid.
00:26:54No, I understand that, sir.
00:26:55I'm in England, and my kids are in Paris.
00:26:57Paris?
00:26:59Have you spoken to them?
00:27:00Yeah, about three hours ago,
00:27:01but not since the earthquake, sir.
00:27:03My dear fellow, I am so sorry.
00:27:05No, no, no. That's all right.
00:27:06They're smart kids.
00:27:07They're probably all right, I'm sure.
00:27:08Oh, yes, of course. I didn't mean...
00:27:11We're headed to Paris right now.
00:27:13How are you getting there?
00:27:14We're going to the Eurotunnel.
00:27:15Put the car in the train.
00:27:16Have you made a booking?
00:27:17No, we can't get through.
00:27:18All right.
00:27:19I may be able to help you there.
00:27:20What's your ETA?
00:27:21Little over an hour or so,
00:27:22depending on weather and traffic.
00:27:23All right.
00:27:24I'm in Germany, but I've got a friend of mine.
00:27:26Thanks, Ralph.
00:27:27What about the kids?
00:27:28What's that?
00:27:29The kids.
00:27:30We haven't spoken with them
00:27:31since before the earthquake.
00:27:32They don't know we're coming,
00:27:33and we don't know where they're at.
00:27:34Well, the good news is
00:27:35that the mobile phone system in Paris
00:27:36is still working.
00:27:37It's crowded,
00:27:38but keep trying,
00:27:39and you may get through.
00:27:40And what's the bad news?
00:27:41More earthquakes?
00:27:42No, the earthquakes are the least of our problems.
00:27:43And what's the bigger problems?
00:27:44What's the bigger problems?
00:27:45No.
00:27:46What's the bad news?
00:27:47More earthquakes?
00:27:48No, the earthquakes are the least of our problems.
00:27:49Then what's the bigger problem?
00:27:50Look, Steve.
00:27:51This ash cloud,
00:27:52combined with a freak storm
00:27:53and some circumstances
00:27:54that I don't fully understand.
00:27:55Anyway, the longer the short of it is this.
00:27:56The cold is going to get colder,
00:27:57and the snow is going to get deeper.
00:27:59Tell me there's a way out of this, Colonel.
00:28:01Steve?
00:28:02I don't know.
00:28:03I don't know.
00:28:04I don't know.
00:28:05I don't know.
00:28:06I don't know.
00:28:07I don't know.
00:28:08You know.
00:28:09I don't know.
00:28:10I don't know.
00:28:11I don't know.
00:28:12I don't know.
00:28:13I don't know.
00:28:14I don't know.
00:28:15You know.
00:28:16I don't know.
00:28:17Steve?
00:28:18Europe is finished.
00:28:20This is a global crisis.
00:28:23Now think back on your emergency protocols.
00:28:26They're executing Operation Down Under.
00:28:30We're going to evade more NATO personnel
00:28:32and their families to Australia.
00:28:34I will have C-160s leaving every two hours
00:28:38for the next ten hours.
00:28:39If you can get here, I promise you,
00:28:42I will have a place for you on those planes.
00:28:44Colonel, I don't know if I can get to Germany
00:28:46in ten hours.
00:28:47It might take me that long just to get to Paris.
00:28:52What about Evereux?
00:28:54That's a good possibility.
00:28:55If you can get to Evereux,
00:28:56I'll have an MI-8 pick you up there.
00:28:59We'll go via Paris and bring you here.
00:29:01All right?
00:29:02I'll do my best.
00:29:03Well, you've got ten hours to find them and get you.
00:29:06After that, I can't help.
00:29:07Now listen, Steve, I know I owe you big,
00:29:10but this is the best I can do.
00:29:12I've got an awful lot on my plate here right at the moment.
00:29:15No, I understand, Colonel.
00:29:17When I see you in ten hours, we'll be even.
00:29:20Well, I look forward to seeing you all.
00:29:22God bless.
00:29:23Thank you, Colonel.
00:29:24Out.
00:29:28What exactly did you do for him?
00:29:30Nothing he wouldn't have done for me.
00:29:33Where's Avro?
00:29:35It's an Air Force base about 65 miles north of Paris.
00:29:38And I'll tell you, that's a lucky break for us.
00:29:40Well, considering.
00:29:42Speaking of lucky breaks,
00:29:44just a couple miles to go to the Eurotunnel.
00:29:47Okay, I'm calling the kids again.
00:29:51Damn.
00:30:02Oh, no.
00:30:03We're too late.
00:30:04It's already been abandoned.
00:30:06Maybe not.
00:30:07Let's check around back.
00:30:12See?
00:30:13Some of you must still be here.
00:30:15I don't know.
00:30:16It's pretty dead to me.
00:30:17Okay, but worst case scenario,
00:30:19it's warmer in there than it is out here.
00:30:20Maybe there's supplies or a working phone.
00:30:22And if all that fails,
00:30:24then climb it to the top and use your phone.
00:30:26Okay.
00:30:27But the record?
00:30:28Duly notice.
00:30:29Come on.
00:30:33Hello?
00:30:34Hello?
00:30:35We're Americans.
00:30:37We need help.
00:30:39Which way?
00:30:40I don't know.
00:30:43That way?
00:30:45No.
00:30:46Okay, how about that way?
00:30:47No.
00:30:48Taryn?
00:30:49What?
00:30:50It's dirty.
00:30:51It's creepy.
00:30:52Looks like it's gonna fall apart any second.
00:30:53Look at the bright side.
00:30:54Go bright side.
00:30:55We should go that way.
00:30:56Hello?
00:30:57Hello?
00:30:58Hello?
00:30:59At least they have power.
00:31:00Look at the lights.
00:31:01Yeah, sure.
00:31:02This isn't creepy at all.
00:31:03I just ignore the scraping sound.
00:31:04And a little girl in the corner singing.
00:31:05I don't know.
00:31:06I don't know.
00:31:07I don't know.
00:31:08I don't know.
00:31:09I don't know.
00:31:10I don't know.
00:31:11I don't know.
00:31:12I don't know.
00:31:13I don't know.
00:31:14I don't know.
00:31:15Do you?
00:31:16It's whatever happens to him.
00:31:17I don't know.
00:31:17What happens to him?
00:31:18No.
00:31:21In-the-the...
00:31:22legacy, yeah.
00:31:25Or what?
00:31:27D.
00:31:28Flinning!
00:31:29I don't know.
00:31:30영ms in the entirety.
00:31:31Or what?
00:31:33We are going to do better.
00:31:34You know.
00:31:35Don't forget i don't know.
00:31:38Yeah.
00:31:39Let's go check it out.
00:31:51Oh, God, what a mess.
00:31:59Dad, what are you doing?
00:32:02For something useful.
00:32:03Maybe someone left a hat or a jacket or something.
00:32:06Let's head up to the roof.
00:32:07Maybe your cell phone will get a signal.
00:32:08You're crazy. I'm not going up the roof.
00:32:10Can't get too fed easy.
00:32:11We're just looking for...
00:32:13You're an American.
00:32:14Who are you?
00:32:15I'm Ryan Foster.
00:32:16This is my sister Taryn.
00:32:17Our dad is Major Steve Foster, U.S. Air Force.
00:32:19But we can't get a hold of him, and our house got destroyed.
00:32:22And we're freezing, and we figured the best place would be
00:32:24would be the U.S. Embassy.
00:32:25Yeah, well, sorry to let you down, but this place has been red tagged.
00:32:28Everyone left 50 minutes ago.
00:32:30We're setting up a Red Cross station at the Louvre.
00:32:32I don't even know how you guys got in here.
00:32:34Probably a security guard left field, too.
00:32:36Krause, I gotta get out of here, and you too. It's not safe.
00:32:39Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:32:40Do you have any jackets or a coat or something for us?
00:32:42Red Cross will have all that for you.
00:32:43No, I mean, what I'm talking about right now, we're freezing.
00:32:45I can't help you.
00:32:46Is your phone working?
00:32:47No.
00:32:48Look, we gotta go.
00:32:49I just came back for these files, and I have them.
00:32:51We have to go.
00:32:52Come on.
00:32:53But, but, but I can't go out like this.
00:32:55Look, it's better to be outside than inside.
00:32:57You don't have to worry about things falling on your head.
00:32:59Come on.
00:33:00Let's go.
00:33:02Hey, wait!
00:33:03Move your asses!
00:33:06Hey, look.
00:33:07We don't know where we're going.
00:33:09I think we're supposed to stand in a doorway.
00:33:14Whoa!
00:33:16This is stupid.
00:33:17Let's go.
00:33:18Whoa!
00:33:28You all right?
00:33:29Yeah.
00:33:30I don't think I broke anything.
00:33:31How are you?
00:33:33Yeah.
00:33:34Lucky I landed on you.
00:33:49Ryan, I think it's not gonna help.
00:33:51There's a metal door.
00:33:52It's supposed to be some kind of vault or something.
00:33:54All right.
00:33:55Then we can climb out.
00:33:58Ryan, don't tell me we're trapped down here.
00:34:01We're not trapped down here.
00:34:03Yeah, but is that true?
00:34:05That's what I'm working on.
00:34:10We gotta get out of here.
00:34:11All right.
00:34:12Look.
00:34:14I'm gonna boost you up, okay?
00:34:15You step right here.
00:34:16Boost up, you climb out.
00:34:17Just go.
00:34:19And then what?
00:34:20You get out of the building as fast as you can
00:34:21before it comes down.
00:34:22Yeah, but what about you?
00:34:23We'll figure something out.
00:34:24You'll figure something out?
00:34:25What do you mean you'll figure something out?
00:34:27What are you gonna do?
00:34:28Climb up?
00:34:29Jump up?
00:34:30Light a fire signal?
00:34:31We have got to get out of here!
00:34:32That's what I'm talking about!
00:34:33Let's go!
00:34:34Come on!
00:34:38I'm not leaving you.
00:34:39Taryn, just go.
00:34:40All right?
00:34:41Get out of the building.
00:34:42I'll be right behind you.
00:34:43You will not.
00:34:44Don't lie to me, Ryan.
00:34:45What do you want me to do, Taryn?
00:34:46If we stay here, we die.
00:34:48All right?
00:34:49Get out of here now.
00:34:50Save yourself.
00:34:51If you're out of your friggin' mind,
00:34:52if you think I'm gonna leave you here,
00:34:53what am I gonna tell Dad?
00:35:00I'm gonna climb up,
00:35:01and I'll figure something out.
00:35:02I'll come back and get you, okay?
00:35:04I'll be right back.
00:35:05Okay?
00:35:06Be right here.
00:35:07I'll be right back.
00:35:08Okay?
00:35:09Be right here.
00:35:10Okay.
00:35:11I'll be right back.
00:35:12I'll be right back.
00:35:13Okay?
00:35:14Be right here.
00:35:15Okay.
00:35:16I'll be right back.
00:35:18I'll be right back.
00:35:19I'll be right back.
00:35:20I'll be right back.
00:35:22Okay?
00:35:23Be right here.
00:35:24Okay.
00:35:28Come on.
00:35:58Okay, I found something.
00:36:22Great, a ladder?
00:36:24Okay, just stand in the corner.
00:36:25I'm going to drop this down, okay?
00:36:28Perfect.
00:36:33Do you have the other end tied to something?
00:36:35Give me a second.
00:36:36I'm all set.
00:37:01Are you sure?
00:37:02Yeah.
00:37:05Okay.
00:37:05Go on.
00:37:06Go on.
00:37:08Go on.
00:37:10Get him.
00:37:11Go on.
00:37:12Go on.
00:37:14Go on.
00:37:15Go on.
00:37:16Oh, God.
00:37:17Oh, my God.
00:37:20We've got to get out of here.
00:37:20Oh, my God.
00:37:27Where's everyone?
00:37:33Oh!
00:37:38Help! Help!
00:37:40Somebody help!
00:37:42There's nobody out there. You're wasting your time.
00:37:45Hey! Please, lie down!
00:37:50Oh, my God!
00:37:52Ryan! Ryan!
00:37:54Ryan! What happened?
00:37:56Oh, my God.
00:37:58You're being a lynch kid.
00:37:59You're having me a heart attack.
00:38:01Oh, shit.
00:38:09Ryan!
00:38:10Oh, my God.
00:38:13I don't know how to work this thing.
00:38:15What do I do with this thing?
00:38:16I don't know what to do.
00:38:18Help!
00:38:19Help!
00:38:20Somebody!
00:38:21Hey, help me!
00:38:22Help!
00:38:23What happened?
00:38:24I don't know.
00:38:25He had like a million volts of electricity or something.
00:38:27He's been electrocuted.
00:38:28Please.
00:38:29I got help.
00:38:30Put those out.
00:38:31Put those out.
00:38:32I don't know how to work this thing.
00:38:33Don't yell at me.
00:38:34I got to check for a heartbeat.
00:38:35It's there, but it's irregular.
00:38:40Clear!
00:38:43Ryan!
00:38:44I thought you left.
00:38:45No, no, no.
00:38:46The tremor hit and I got hit on the head and got knocked out.
00:38:49You're screaming and woke me up.
00:38:50Come on.
00:38:51Can you walk?
00:38:52Ryan!
00:38:53Come on.
00:38:54Get up.
00:38:55You okay?
00:38:56You okay?
00:38:57You okay?
00:38:58Okay.
00:38:59We gotta go.
00:39:00Come on.
00:39:01Hurry.
00:39:02Hey!
00:39:03Wait.
00:39:04Now where?
00:39:05The Louvre.
00:39:06I think he was right about the Red Cross.
00:39:07That's where they'll be.
00:39:08Where is it?
00:39:09Near the river.
00:39:10By the Palnoz.
00:39:11Right.
00:39:12Go away.
00:39:13Go away.
00:39:14Go away.
00:39:15Go away.
00:39:16Go away.
00:39:32Go away.
00:39:33Go away.
00:39:38What's up?
00:39:39We're not gonna make it.
00:39:41We're not gonna make it.
00:39:42I'll talk to this guy.
00:39:51Excuse me.
00:39:52I have a reservation.
00:39:53Departure hangar?
00:39:54What's that?
00:39:55You can't board without a departure hangar.
00:39:57The machine's over there.
00:39:58Can you just check?
00:39:59It's Steve Foster.
00:40:00Foster.
00:40:01F-O-S-T-E.
00:40:02I can hear you.
00:40:03I just don't care.
00:40:04I don't think you understand.
00:40:05Colonel Diller called personally to make a reservation for me.
00:40:08If you've got a reservation, get your departure hangar over there.
00:40:11Not that it'll do any good.
00:40:13And why's that?
00:40:14They're running hours behind.
00:40:15Those people were meant to be on the 9am train.
00:40:18And they've been here all day.
00:40:20And I hear the next train might be the last because of the weather.
00:40:28Steve!
00:40:29What the hell are you doing?
00:40:30We're not gonna get our tasks.
00:40:31The whole system's falling apart.
00:40:32We're running out of time.
00:40:33Let's try the service tunnel.
00:40:34Call the kids.
00:40:35Steve!
00:40:36Steve!
00:40:37What the hell are you doing?
00:40:38We're not gonna get our tasks.
00:40:39The whole system's falling apart and we're running out of time.
00:40:40Let's try the service tunnel.
00:40:41Call the kids.
00:40:42Is that your phone?
00:40:43Is that your phone?
00:40:44No way.
00:40:45It's still working?
00:40:46Yes, Dad.
00:40:47Hello, Dad.
00:40:48Where are you guys?
00:40:49Did you hear what happened?
00:40:50Taren, thank God.
00:40:51Listen, it's Lacey.
00:40:52Are you all right?
00:40:53Your father's busy driving.
00:40:54Are you okay?
00:40:55Is your brother with you?
00:40:56Is he safe?
00:40:57Why aren't he here?
00:40:58I don't know.
00:40:59I don't know.
00:41:00I don't know.
00:41:01I don't know.
00:41:02I don't know.
00:41:03I don't know.
00:41:04I don't know.
00:41:05I don't know.
00:41:06I don't know.
00:41:07I don't know.
00:41:08I don't know.
00:41:09I don't know.
00:41:10I don't know.
00:41:11We're safe.
00:41:12Ryan's here.
00:41:13We're fine.
00:41:14We're fine.
00:41:15But the city, it's horrible.
00:41:16Okay, listen.
00:41:17Everything's gonna be fine.
00:41:18We have a plan.
00:41:19Okay, what's the plan?
00:41:20We need a place to rendezvous.
00:41:22Okay, listen.
00:41:23We need a place we can find you.
00:41:24What do you see around you?
00:41:25What's nearby?
00:41:26Nothing.
00:41:27Nothing.
00:41:28It's all gone.
00:41:29What are they asking?
00:41:30They need a place to meet us?
00:41:32The embassy?
00:41:38The tower.
00:41:40The Eiffel Tower.
00:41:41It's still there.
00:41:42They say the Eiffel Tower is still standing.
00:41:44Perfect.
00:41:45Tell them to go to the tower and find a safe place to stay and look out for a helicopter.
00:41:49We'll be there.
00:41:50It'll take some time, but we'll get there.
00:42:00Corporal, I'm Major Foster, US Air Force.
00:42:02I need access to the service tunnel.
00:42:03Sorry, sir.
00:42:04This tunnel is for emergencies only.
00:42:05This is an emergency, Corporal.
00:42:06I need to get to France.
00:42:07So do all those people.
00:42:08My children are stranded in Paris, Corporal.
00:42:09I need to get to them.
00:42:10My mom's in Reykjavik.
00:42:11We haven't spoken since yesterday.
00:42:12I understand, sir.
00:42:16What's the problem?
00:42:17He's not going to let us through.
00:42:18Look at that.
00:42:23Oh, when more people realize they won't get through.
00:42:24It's getting ugly out there, and it's only going to get worse.
00:42:31He's not gonna let us through
00:42:40Look at that
00:42:44When more people realize they won't get through it's getting ugly out there, and it's only gonna get worse
00:42:49We're running out of time. They're gonna close this tunnel. We're never gonna get out of here
00:42:56Hell with it hold on
00:43:00All right, we're on our way
00:43:07Oh freezing my ass off we need coats you're telling me
00:43:12Look best-case scenario. They're not gonna be here for another three hours probably more. Yeah
00:43:17So why don't we go find coats in someplace warm where we can rest a while okay, but I don't want to miss them at the tower
00:43:22Neither do I if we get pneumonia out here. We're not gonna be doing anyone any favors
00:43:30They're still in England, right? They have to find the helicopter first wherever the hell that is then fly to Paris
00:43:35It's gonna be a while and it's cold
00:43:42Okay, where do you want to go this way at least it's in the direction of the Louvre
00:43:48What is it? What is it? What is it? What is it?
00:43:51The army's rounding people out probably for evacuations
00:43:53Well, that's a good thing, right?
00:43:55Not if it stops us from getting to Lacey and dad
00:43:57Whatever's going on here
00:43:59Staying in some refugee camp isn't gonna save us, okay?
00:44:05Wait Ryan, the cold it's freezing. I don't want to die out here in the streets
00:44:10All right, you're right. You're right. Let me think
00:44:13Where are we?
00:44:17Avenue George. I know what we can do
00:44:19What?
00:44:19It runs through the Furrier District
00:44:21Come on
00:44:26See?
00:44:27They actually teach you something useful in fashion school, huh?
00:44:31Let's go
00:44:38Don't look like there's anyone here
00:44:40Doesn't look like there's anything here
00:44:43I guess we weren't the first people to think of Furriers. Might be a good stop, huh?
00:44:47It's gotta be something
00:44:52Hey, maybe downstairs there's gotta be a stock room or something, right?
00:44:56Where the shop? I am NOT going back out there like this
00:45:09Bingo
00:45:11Here, try this
00:45:17Better?
00:45:18Much
00:45:19Oh, we got lucky
00:45:20Relatively speaking
00:45:21Oh, we got lucky
00:45:31Of course you don't speak French
00:45:32Typical Americans
00:45:33We're sorry, we didn't think that you...
00:45:35We're sorry, we didn't think that you...
00:45:36You didn't think I'd mind being robbed?
00:45:38The looters already took most of my coats
00:45:41But you won't get these
00:45:42Sir, please, we don't mean any harm
00:45:43Look, we just...
00:45:44You know how it is out there
00:45:45It's freezing
00:45:46And it's only getting colder
00:45:47We need these coats
00:45:48Then you buy them like anyone else
00:45:50Okay, yeah, fine, sure, how much?
00:45:54Price is determined by need
00:45:57And your need is great
00:45:58So the price will be greater
00:46:00I'd say...
00:46:0420,000 euros
00:46:06A piece
00:46:0820,000 euros? That's ridiculous
00:46:11Yeah, who's robbing who here?
00:46:13Please, sir, be reasonable
00:46:14Leave my money
00:46:16Or leave my coats
00:46:18Or leave both
00:46:20We're making good time
00:46:30As long as the roads ahead of us
00:46:32Are as good as they were in England
00:46:33And no more earthquakes
00:46:35Don't jinx it
00:46:36It's not the snow I'm so worried about
00:46:38It's the wind
00:46:38Steve
00:46:39Right
00:46:40Lips are sealed
00:46:41This really is what you do, isn't it?
00:46:46What's that?
00:46:47Keep cool in the crisis
00:46:48Rise to the challenge
00:46:49Find solutions
00:46:50Well, it is what I was trained for
00:46:52Unfortunately, I wasn't trained in raising a family
00:46:54But it's going to work this time, I promise you
00:46:56Yeah, it's going to work
00:46:56No, it will work
00:46:57It's going to work
00:46:58I'll make sure it works
00:46:59Australia will be the true test of that
00:47:02All four of us live in a little tent together
00:47:05Australia, I wonder what that's going to be like
00:47:08I'll certainly get to know your kids
00:47:10Yeah
00:47:10I'm sure they found some place in Paris
00:47:13To get some cold weather gear
00:47:15Yeah, I'm sure
00:47:16No, in Terrence, you probably
00:47:18Spent $3,000 on some skippy little ski jacket
00:47:21You know, I think you're a much better father
00:47:26Than you give yourself credit for
00:47:27Well, thanks
00:47:28I'm sure they're just a couple of chips
00:47:31Right off the old block
00:47:32Well, let's hope
00:47:33Right now our mission is to find them
00:47:34Make sure they're safe
00:47:35And get them out of Paris
00:47:37Roger that, Major
00:47:39Look, easy, here
00:47:44We'll pay
00:47:45Take my credit card
00:47:46Cash only, mon ami
00:47:47We don't have that kind of cash
00:47:49Who would?
00:47:50Please, just
00:47:51It's happening again
00:47:52We've got to get out of here
00:47:53Go
00:47:54Karen?
00:47:58Karen?
00:48:02Karen?
00:48:02Karen?
00:48:02Karen?
00:48:03Karen?
00:48:08Karen?
00:48:09Karen?
00:48:09Karen?
00:48:10I can't lift it
00:48:16It's too heavy
00:48:17Oh my god, the ceiling
00:48:18It's not going to hold
00:48:19Karen, hurry
00:48:22You've got to get me out of here
00:48:28Karen?
00:48:33Damn it
00:48:33Let me go get some help, okay?
00:48:36Help?
00:48:36Where?
00:48:37Karen, you can't leave me here
00:48:39Karen, I have to
00:48:40I can't lift this by myself
00:48:41We need help, okay?
00:48:43Look, I won't be a minute, alright?
00:48:45Karen?
00:48:46Karen, you can't leave me here
00:48:47Just hang tight
00:48:50I'll be right back
00:48:51Hey, help, help!
00:49:04Hey!
00:49:06Hey, sir, sir
00:49:07Please, you've got to help
00:49:09She's my sister
00:49:11Hey
00:49:12It's you
00:49:14My sister
00:49:16She's downstairs, she's trapped
00:49:18Please, you've got to help me
00:49:19Wait, wait, I'm very sorry
00:49:21My mom
00:49:22Please
00:49:22Ryan, I didn't bring anybody
00:49:46It's crazy out there, but I brought this
00:49:49I'm going to lift it up as high as I can
00:49:51You run as fast as you can out, okay?
00:49:53Okay, do it!
00:49:54One, two, three
00:49:55I'm trying!
00:50:00Ryan, Ryan, thank you so much!
00:50:23Thank you!
00:50:29I'm sorry I called you a printer
00:50:31That's the first thing you think to apologize to me for?
00:50:35Shut up
00:50:36Ow!
00:50:37How bad is that?
00:50:40Damn, these were $200 jeans
00:50:42Right, but are you going to die a tetanus?
00:50:44Probably not
00:50:44It hurts, but the cut's not that deep
00:50:47I'll be fine
00:50:48Okay, good
00:50:48We need to get across the Seine
00:50:50The tower's on the Rive Dois
00:50:51Wow, Ryan
00:50:53That's impressive
00:50:54No, not really
00:50:55It's the only bit of French that I've learned since I've been here
00:50:57That and it's okay
00:50:59I'm a doctor
00:50:59All right, well let's find somewhere to stay warm and dry until we get here
00:51:03Yeah, I could really go for a nice cup of coffee right now
00:51:06Coffee?
00:51:08How about a hazelnut crepe?
00:51:10Chocolate eclair?
00:51:11Foot rub?
00:51:12Sarcasm isn't helpful right now, Taryn
00:51:14Anna
00:51:17Yes, doctor?
00:51:19I want you to check my work
00:51:20Sir?
00:51:22I think perhaps I've made a mistake because what I'm looking at here is unprecedented
00:51:27I can't send it to NATO until I'm sure it's correct
00:51:31Of course, doctor Goldschein
00:51:32Anna, have you ever heard about an ice cyclone?
00:51:38Is there any record of such a thing?
00:51:40Not that I know of, doctor
00:51:42Well, check the figures
00:51:44Because I wouldn't want to think what an ice cyclone could do in a city like Paris
00:51:50Was that an earthquake?
00:52:05Maybe just a passing tremor
00:52:07Still, I feel safer when we're above sea level again
00:52:11About ten minutes we'll be up top
00:52:13Just a few miles to go now
00:52:22Then how far to Evra?
00:52:25About two hours tops
00:52:26Depending on the road conditions
00:52:28I wonder if she's gonna be worse
00:52:30I wonder if she's gonna be worse
00:52:30The main roads are back
00:52:31What was that?
00:52:32Another tremor?
00:52:34I don't know, but I didn't like the sound of it
00:52:36And another one
00:52:38It's getting closer
00:52:40What is that?
00:52:40It's getting closer
00:52:40Steve!
00:52:46What is that?
00:52:48That's the English Channel coming in
00:52:49Just go!
00:52:52Just go!
00:52:56Go faster!
00:52:57I'm going fast
00:52:58I got it at max
00:53:00Look, it's right in front of us
00:53:02I see it, hold on, we're going through it
00:53:03Mom, come on!
00:53:05It's coming in everywhere, look at that
00:53:06I see it, honey, I see it
00:53:09There's the exit, there's the exit
00:53:12Brace yourself, brace yourself!
00:53:14Come on!
00:53:14How many dead?
00:53:25Over a thousand
00:53:26Both trains were full to capacity
00:53:28Over full
00:53:28Well, I suppose it's just a drop in the bucket
00:53:31Compared to the millions are going to die
00:53:33Before this is over
00:53:34And it was the 1pm departure
00:53:38That's the one I booked Steve on
00:53:44He was a good man
00:53:48Anyway, he might be able to do something for his children
00:53:51Paris, they're evacuating Paris, aren't they?
00:53:55Yes, sir
00:53:55They've rounded up the survivors
00:53:57And put them into temporary shelters
00:53:58Right
00:53:59Download pictures of the kids
00:54:01Send them to whoever's in charge
00:54:04And see if they can get them here
00:54:05But, sir, why all this effort for two Americans
00:54:08With all the civilians
00:54:09Because I owe the man
00:54:11You saved my life once
00:54:14We flew together for years
00:54:17E-3 Senturies
00:54:20Desert Storm
00:54:21And a lot of other operations
00:54:23In 95, we were in Alaska
00:54:26Took off on a perfectly clear day
00:54:28And ingested an entire flock of Canada geese
00:54:30What?
00:54:32The plane went down like a stone
00:54:33Everybody on board was killed
00:54:34Or seriously wounded
00:54:35I was unconscious
00:54:37Steve was wounded
00:54:39He found me
00:54:40Pulled me out of the wreckage
00:54:42And carried me on his back
00:54:43Three miles
00:54:44Back to headquarters
00:54:45We don't forget things like that
00:54:49There is a chance
00:54:52They made it through
00:54:52Before the quake, of course
00:54:53Yes
00:54:56Yes, you're quite right
00:54:58He might have done
00:54:59All right
00:55:00I'll try and get him on his set
00:55:02But first, sir
00:55:03Did you have a chance to look at Goldshine's revised model?
00:55:06No, no
00:55:07I've been dealing with operational matters
00:55:09What now?
00:55:12Oh, my God
00:55:13This is like a sick joke
00:55:16If I said her luck was holding up
00:55:22Would you consider that a jinx?
00:55:23Um, yeah
00:55:24But now it's too late
00:55:25Well, we are ahead of schedule
00:55:27Um, Dillard's calling back
00:55:30Hello?
00:55:32Colonel Dillard?
00:55:34Hello, Steve
00:55:35Steve, this is Dillard
00:55:37Um, Colonel
00:55:38This is Lacey Foster
00:55:39Steve's wife
00:55:40I can understand what you're saying
00:55:42Hello?
00:55:43Colonel, I think that's you
00:55:44We're in France
00:55:45A couple of hours from Evro
00:55:46I can't hear you
00:55:48Listen, Steve
00:55:49There's been a change of plan
00:55:51Paris is unsafe
00:55:54Don't go to Paris
00:55:57Storm coming
00:55:58Hello?
00:55:59Colonel Dillard?
00:55:59I've seen before
00:56:00The kids are directly dangerous
00:56:05Now, I will arrange to have the kids picked up
00:56:09A brief guidance question
00:56:12If you can get to Evro
00:56:14The helicopter
00:56:16Kids, something about the storm
00:56:21And the kids
00:56:21And Evro
00:56:22I don't know
00:56:24Look, I hope you understand this message
00:56:27Colonel?
00:56:29Can you hear me?
00:56:30Can you repeat?
00:56:31I'm sorry
00:56:31I can't make out a word you're saying
00:56:33Gotta go now
00:56:34God bless
00:56:36Now I lost signal
00:56:38Now what?
00:56:42We'll just stick to the plan
00:56:44That's all we can do
00:56:45This part of the city seems quiet
00:56:51It must have been evacuated already
00:56:53Hey
00:56:53There's gotta be an unlocked door somewhere around here
00:56:57If we can get inside some place
00:56:59Preferably some place with food and power
00:57:01We ought to be safe and warm
00:57:02Until it's time to meet up with Dad and Lacey
00:57:04Okay, breaking and entering
00:57:05Great plan, Ryan, great
00:57:07You wanna be law-abiding
00:57:08Or you wanna be warm?
00:57:13Come on, come on, come on
00:57:14Damn, he saw us
00:57:17Well, where are we gonna go?
00:57:20We can't run
00:57:23He'd follow
00:57:24Probably call others
00:57:25We'd just get further away from the tower
00:57:26Maybe we can reason with him?
00:57:29He doesn't sound too reasonable
00:57:34He doesn't look that reasonable either
00:57:39Look, Ryan
00:57:41We don't know this guy
00:57:43We don't know where he would take us
00:57:44Dad is risking everything to be at the tower
00:57:46We need to be there when he arrives
00:57:47You're right, come on
00:57:48All right, easy
00:57:53Easy
00:57:54Look, we don't mean any harm
00:57:56American
00:57:57We can
00:57:58You need to come with me
00:58:10Everyone is being evacuated
00:58:12We have shelter set upside the city with food and medical supplies
00:58:15But we can't do that
00:58:16We're meeting our parents at the Eiffel Tower
00:58:17No, no, you come with me
00:58:18Your parents are probably in a chateau already
00:58:21No, no, no
00:58:21You don't understand
00:58:22Our parents
00:58:23No, you don't understand
00:58:23A major disaster has occurred
00:58:25We need to get everyone to a place of safety
00:58:27Safety where?
00:58:28This isn't just some storm
00:58:29Don't you get it?
00:58:32I am not asking
00:58:32Come with me now
00:58:34Look, we can't
00:58:36We're sorry
00:58:37I have my orders
00:58:41And now you have yours
00:58:42You can meet me for your own safety
00:58:44All right, all right
00:58:45Just don't shoot us for our own safety
00:58:48Debeck, get in
00:59:01Oh, hey
00:59:03How much further?
00:59:2010 or 12 miles
00:59:21Are we going to gas?
00:59:23Oh, yeah, we're doing great
00:59:24All righty then
00:59:26Nap time
00:59:33Whoa
00:59:36You all right?
00:59:38That wind came out of nowhere
00:59:40It must be 60, 70 miles an hour
00:59:42Well, what can we do?
00:59:49We might have to pull over until it passes
00:59:51Can we spare the time?
00:59:55Not really, but
00:59:56We might not have a choice
00:59:58Hold on
01:00:06Hey
01:00:11You all right?
01:00:12Yeah
01:00:13You?
01:00:14Yeah
01:00:14Yeah
01:00:15Okay
01:00:17Oh, come on
01:00:21It looks like we're on foot from here, soldier
01:00:26On foot
01:00:27Yeah
01:00:27Yeah
01:00:29Yeah
01:00:30It's all right
01:00:31It's only a couple of miles
01:00:32A couple of miles?
01:00:33Yeah
01:00:33How are we going to find the base?
01:00:35It's fine
01:00:36We've got all the coordinates
01:00:37Into the GPS of my watch
01:00:39Oh
01:00:39Ready for a little hike, soldier?
01:00:41Sure
01:00:41Come on, let's get in the gear
01:00:42There you go
01:01:00Southwest
01:01:11This way
01:01:12You will see
01:01:19The shelter is probably the best place for you to be
01:01:22Most likely your parents are already there waiting for you
01:01:24Sir, we know you're just trying to do your job
01:01:26But we really need to get to the tower, okay?
01:01:28Our parents are coming in from out of town
01:01:29No one is coming in from out of town, monsieur
01:01:31Of that, I cannot show you
01:01:33Our dad is an Air Force pilot
01:01:35Or used to be
01:01:36And he's sending a helicopter to pick us up
01:01:38You need to let us go
01:01:39I am sorry, mademoiselle, my own
01:01:41Look out!
01:01:42Oh, my God
01:01:46Everyone all right?
01:01:52Okay?
01:01:52I'm fine
01:01:53Is he all right?
01:01:56I don't think so
01:01:57Hey!
01:01:59Come on
01:02:01Oh, my God, we're stuck
01:02:03He's got them all safety locked
01:02:05Do you smell that?
01:02:11Gasoline
01:02:12Oh, my God, it's leaking
01:02:15Quick, we've got to get out of here
01:02:27Come on
01:02:27What?
01:02:28What about her?
01:02:58I'm a little dizzy.
01:03:14We need to get out of here.
01:03:16Where?
01:03:17I don't know.
01:03:19The Eiffel Tower, the Eiffel Tower.
01:03:21The tunnel!
01:03:22The tunnel!
01:03:24The tunnel!
01:03:26There's a tunnel.
01:03:27Poor Pendulum.
01:03:28The cuisine.
01:03:29Shortcut!
01:03:31Come!
01:03:32Come!
01:03:54Can we rest for a second?
01:03:56It's been hours.
01:03:57Come on, honey.
01:03:58We gotta keep moving.
01:03:59Gotta keep the blood circulating.
01:04:00The legs are on fire, but the rest of me is not going cold.
01:04:02We gotta keep moving, honey.
01:04:03Come on.
01:04:04No.
01:04:05Here, Lacey.

01:04:47What?
01:04:48We?
01:04:49Oh, I can't believe it.
01:04:50Still on schedule.
01:04:51Don't jinx this.
01:04:52Come on, Jinx, sis.
01:04:54Come on.
01:04:58Oh, Steve!
01:04:59Steve, come on!
01:05:01Wait, Steve!
01:05:19Well, your beat's working.
01:05:21You all right?
01:05:22It's creepy.
01:05:27There's nobody here.
01:05:29Let's hope someone's still here.
01:05:30Hello!
01:05:33Hello!
01:05:34Is anybody here?
01:05:36Colonel Dillard sent us!
01:05:40Foster!
01:05:41Yeah!
01:05:42Over here!
01:05:46Come on.
01:05:47Get in.
01:05:48Lieutenant Carl Redding, sir.
01:05:51Glad you made it.
01:05:52Thank you, Lieutenant.
01:05:53This is my wife, Lacey.
01:05:54Well, now that we're all here,
01:05:55why don't we get the hell out?
01:05:56Good idea.
01:05:57I'll get the doors and you start her up.
01:05:58Well, actually, I hear you're a hell of a pilot.
01:06:00Why don't I get these doors and you fire it out?
01:06:02You got it!
01:06:03You got it.
01:06:12Main rotor.
01:06:13Clear.
01:06:14Throttle.
01:06:15Open.
01:06:16Starter.
01:06:17Engaging.
01:06:20Oil pressure 10% in one.
01:06:22I should go help him.
01:06:28Thanks.
01:06:43Main rotor?
01:06:44Turning by 25% of M1.
01:06:46Starting?
01:06:47Releasing at 58%.
01:06:49I can't believe that.
01:06:54Whoa!
01:06:55Uh, I'm okay!
01:06:56No, he needs my help again.
01:06:58Oh!
01:07:15PC!
01:07:16Let me see, it's an egg.
01:07:18We need to make up the lost time.
01:07:46Oh, good job.
01:08:12Honestly, it could be any kind of decent luck getting to the helicopter.
01:08:15I really hope we don't miss them at the tower.
01:08:17That would really suck.
01:08:19We're not going to miss them.
01:08:21We're making a good time.
01:08:22Okay.
01:08:23We don't need any distractions.
01:08:25What?
01:08:26She's the one who knew where the tunnel was.
01:08:28Gee, we couldn't have just left her back there.
01:08:30It would have been like murder.
01:08:31It's getting worse out there by the minute.
01:08:33Stop!
01:08:35Rise by.
01:08:37Viv, take that.

01:15:05Okay. Let's keep moving.
01:15:15Paris, where's the tower?
01:15:18You'll probably be able to see it for this storm and all these ashes.
01:15:21Oh, there it is.
01:15:25Oh, God.
01:15:26Steve!
01:15:28Let's just get there first and find the kids.
01:15:30One crisis at a time.
01:15:33Oh!
01:15:33Oh!
01:15:36Hey, it's Em!
01:15:41Really?
01:15:42I don't know. It's a helicopter.
01:15:43Hey! Hey!
01:15:44Over here!
01:15:46Ben!
01:15:47Hey!
01:15:47Come on, guys. Where are you?
01:15:50Is it in the future van?
01:15:52Dad!
01:15:53Dad!
01:15:54Oh!
01:15:57Maybe they're underneath it.
01:15:59Maybe, but it looks completely unstable down there.
01:16:05Oh, there! Steve!
01:16:07Ryan! Ryan!
01:16:09There's no way I can hear you, baby!
01:16:10Oh, thank God!
01:16:20Incredible, right?
01:16:21Thank God! Thank God!

01:16:29Hurry!
01:16:30Hurry!
01:16:31Hurry!
01:16:31I see it, but I don't know what the hell it is.
01:16:35Maybe this is what Dillard was talking about.
01:16:37Maybe.
01:16:38All we can do is try to get there before it does.
01:16:40Read my mind.
01:16:47Ryan?
01:16:48If we don't make it out of here, I just...
01:16:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:16:50No, I love you too, T.
01:16:52No, no, no, no, no.
01:16:53I mean, I love you, but I quit school.
01:16:56What?
01:16:57When?
01:16:59A couple months ago.
01:17:00I didn't want you to be disappointed in me.
01:17:02You're so much like Dad.
01:17:03In a good way.
01:17:05Hopefully, that'll be the worst news I get today.
01:17:10David, I missed it!
01:17:34Try again!
01:17:34Try again!
01:17:52It's alright, try again!
01:18:04Can you get any closer?
01:18:06I'm trying!
01:18:07One good gust of wind or slams right into that thing!
01:18:21God!
01:18:23Are you okay?
01:18:24That's fucking short!
01:18:26I don't like this anymore, Ryan.
01:18:28Me either. Let's get out of here.
01:18:34Come on!
01:18:38Come on!
01:18:39Come on!
01:18:45They got it!
01:18:46Alright!
01:18:53Now watch!
01:18:54They can't climb this thing!
01:18:56It's alright!
01:18:57You'll have to slide!
01:18:58Slide!
01:19:03We need a hook or a rod or something!
01:19:06I'm on it!
01:19:07I'm on it!
01:19:27You're okay?
01:19:28Ready?
01:19:30Okay, get ready!
01:19:31Ready?
01:19:32Go!

01:19:42Go!
01:19:43No!
01:19:58Everybody alright?
01:19:59Yeah!
01:20:00Cut that line!
01:20:01Cut that line!
01:20:24Hold on!
01:20:30What was that?
01:20:31We got a hit!
01:20:32How bad is it?
01:20:33It's not good.
01:20:34We've got a hundred miles to go.
01:20:35Only an hour to get there.
01:20:36Are we gonna make it?
01:20:37We'll find out soon enough.
01:20:38We'll find out soon enough.
01:20:39Colonel, why don't we leave if everyone's here?
01:20:41What way is it?
01:20:42What was that?
01:20:43We got a hit!
01:20:44How bad is it?
01:20:45It's not good.
01:20:46We got a hundred miles to go.
01:20:47Only an hour to get there.
01:20:48Are we gonna make it?
01:20:49We'll find out soon enough.
01:20:50Colonel, why don't we leave if everyone's here?
01:20:51Why don't we leave?
01:20:52You mean the storm?
01:20:53I don't know why.
01:20:54No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:20:55They're all over.
01:20:56They're all over there.
01:20:57Colonel, why don't we leave if everyone's here?
01:21:08Because not everyone is here.
01:21:10You're willing to risk all our lives for a couple of people who may or may not make it on time?
01:21:14The storm is only getting worse. We should leave this minute.
01:21:17Who the hell are they anyway? We should get out of here.
01:21:20This plane lives on time, not a second before.
01:21:27Make final preparation for take-off.
01:21:57Come on. Just ten miles. We can make it. We can make it.
01:22:05We're all set, sir. Depart on your command.
01:22:09Very well.
01:22:13There's the base. I think we're gonna be okay.
01:22:16Don't jinx it.
01:22:18Don't be superstitious, honey.
01:22:20Dad! Hold on! We're going down!
01:22:33Let's just hope that snowbank is as soft as it looks.
01:22:36I love you, Daddy!
01:22:38I love you, too, baby. Hold on.
01:22:40Wait a minute. Over there.
01:22:55Everybody hang on! This is it!
01:22:56Looks like they didn't make it, sir.
01:23:08Well, we'd better check it out.
01:23:09But, sir!
01:23:10Listen, ma'am.
01:23:12If half an hour and a walk in the snow is going to save the life of that family, then that's what I'm gonna do.
01:23:16Sir, you have 25 minutes exactly.
01:23:20Captain.
01:23:20Colonel Dillard, you know where I got my orders.
01:23:23Look, I wish you Godspeed, sir, but in 26 minutes we will be airborne, with or without you, sir.
01:23:29You'll do what you have to do, Captain.
01:23:32Just bear in mind, that could be your family out there.
01:23:38Right. I need volunteers.
01:23:43Good lads. Come on.
01:23:46All in.
01:23:54All right. Double time.
01:24:07Anyone alive?
01:24:09Yeah, is that you?
01:24:10Come on, quick. Get them out.
01:24:11Steve, hang on.
01:24:15Get it out of the way.
01:24:16Okay, don't be scared.
01:24:20One.
01:24:22You all right?
01:24:24Good.
01:24:25Three.
01:24:28Sorry, I'm late, buddy.
01:24:31All right, I see your flying's improved.
01:24:34Yeah, I learned from the best, sir.
01:24:35And you can't count, either.
01:24:37Oh, this is, um...
01:24:38She's with me.
01:24:38You got room, don't you?
01:24:39Yes, we got room.
01:24:40Come on.
01:24:41They're waiting for us.
01:24:42Quick as you can.
01:24:46I'll be dead.
01:24:47They actually made it.
01:24:51You know, I think we'd better run that pre-flight chain one more time.
01:24:56Just to be sure.
01:24:57How's school, Taryn?
01:25:00Uh, yeah.
01:25:01I've been made to talk to you about that, Dad.
01:25:03Oh, yeah?
01:25:04Didn't exactly go with the plan.
01:25:06Really?
01:25:07Well, it is a time for new beginnings.
01:25:09For all of us.
01:25:10I've been made to talk to you about this.
01:25:40I've been made to talk to you about this.
01:26:10I've been made to talk to you about this.
